To the STAFF of TFL.....and members

SOSARMS · July 5, 2006, 06:22 AM

Did it ever seem appealing to have a list of FFL dealers, who are here on this site, who would be interested in transfers etc. for those who aren't ?? Tried doing a search, and couldn't find this question coming up......Is this a good idea for our members ??? As Guns America and Gun Broker do provide this service, would it be a good idea here?? I think so.....

I don't see a need for this.

Al Norris · July 5, 2006, 08:51 AM

This is more of a tech & support question.

Off we go...

I think that sounds like a pretty good idea, personally. Could come in very handy for some of us.

SOSARMS · July 6, 2006, 05:43 AM

Would like to hear if the staff has some comments on this issue...............

My first blush impression is that it would be a nice service to offer our members. If it were properly done it may work. I'll open it up to discussion among staff and we'll get back to you.

Thank you !!!
I think it would be a plus......

If any help from me would assist in implementing this, please PM me....

I think there ought to be a centralized internet database of FFLs.

If I were an FFL, I wouldn't want to have to maintain my contact information on half a dozen different sites.

Don't Gunbroker and Auction Arms maintain lists such as these?

Wildalaska · July 10, 2006, 11:40 AM

Yes

As well as Guns America, Gun Lists, and I believe Shotgun News........
That doesn't mean that TFL can't have one within site, rather than steering to other sites that our members may not even frequent.....

Could be something as simple as changing the COLOR of the members names who wish to participate...

Hum...

Do your legs ever get tired from jumping to conclusions?

I wasn't commenting on the blatant stupidity or the intrinsic brilliance of your plan.

Only asking a question about two other websites that are frequently mentioned here.
